Send a personal messsage to *Speedealer*

It seems that chassis damage repair costs inproportionately more to fix than what a new similar chassis goes for. IE: landrunner 67% health, 9k repair vs new landunner for 10k. And it would take 2-3x as long for the repair vs getting a new one. maybe not a bug, but maybe with new chassis damage mod it affected repair costs.

It's not a bug, no, but still the cost of fixing one might be unduly high. I kind of assumed that structural damage to a vehicle would be really hard to fix, and you'd be better off accepting a car that was damaged for ever more. Hence the very high price of fixing it.

It's the same concept in the real world I guess- once a car costs more to fix than it's actually worth, you either keep it as is, or just write it off.

makes sense. should it ever cost more than a new chassis though?

spendy lorry

oh, here's a tire bug too.

Not sure if it came with all those tires or if I filled it up with tires from looting and it decided to add them to the car

I saw that tyre bug once before. Do you have any idea what event the lorry did directly before it got all those double tyres?
